Championing women’s health across Canada with comprehensive testing and empowerment initiatives for personalized well-being.
In Canada, the launch of a groundbreaking study by the House of Commons health committee, has ignited a renewed focus on crucial aspects of women’s health, ranging from reproductive concerns to mental health and societal expectations’ impact on women’s overall well-being. The study of women’s health has brought together experts, policymakers, and advocates who aim to make a significant step toward promoting comprehensive healthcare solutions tailored to women’s unique needs in Canada.
The COVID-19 pandemic only heightened the problem, resulting in delays in breast, ovarian or cervical cancer screenings, procedures and treatments. Now, the call for action sits with a House of Commons committee to study and identify the top women’s, trans and non-binary people’s health issues. This initiative signifies a concerted effort to address existing gender gaps in health care.
